TV on my PC via s-video
MERRY CHRISTMAS!

I have a geforce fx 5200 card with an s-video connector. I also have a svideo to composite adapter to connect to my TV. But when I run pinnacle studio SE 8, it does not capture the device. In fact it only gives me the option to capture via DV; but I dont want it via DV, I want it via the svideo-composite from my TV!
(Or is it only possible to have the PC screen on TV?)
How can I make my pc/or this software to display whats on my TV? any suggestions would be welcome...

Sounds like you have TV out but not TV IN....in order to capture with that sort of connection, you need the IN.

Check the specs for the card, but it looks like you may need some sort of TV tuner card.

MERRY CHRISTMAS/HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO ALL!
